# libcamera Tuning Images Repository

This repository contains **raw image captures used to develop and validate
libcamera tuning files**. It is intended as a shared, open resource to support
camera module tuning across different sensors, lenses, and platforms.

## Aims

Camera tuning requires carefully captured raw images and metadata about the scene.
This repository provides:

- A structured home for **raw tuning captures**
- A clear workflow for generating and reviewing **libcamera tuning files**
- An open licensing model to enable reuse and collaboration

## Large File Support

It is anticiapted that this data storage could grow large, and therefore only
generated tuning files and tooling should be merged on to the main branch.

All image captures should be maintained in a module specific branch with large
files stored using git-lfs so that large objects are only downloaded when
required.

Before working with this repository, ensure Git LFS is installed and run once:

    git lfs install

This is a one-time setup per machine.

Please see https://git-lfs.com/ for more details on LFS.
